Selmar 8 Leisure Battery Charger.

Postby Andrew43 » Sat Jun 03, 2023 11:23 am

Hi my selmar 8 leisure battery charger isnt charging my two leisure batteries. Its not working at all when its plugged into the land line. The batteries charge when the engines running. Is there anything i can try to fix it or will need replacing?

Thanks Andrew.

Depends on if its one of these smart chargers ..they refuse to charge a battery that has dropped to a certain level..try an old fashioned charger on it from the 60's 70's 80's

all the best.mark

If 'plugged-in' light shows OK might be blown 'car fuse' on charger's front or back panel. Long shot.

?All? fuses? There's usually only one (if any) and the one most chargers use is an ordinary "car fuse".
